SOMETHING IMPROVES THE LOCAL CLUB.

RECORDS OF THE BASEBALL LEAGUE AND AssoClA-
TIOS-A SUNDAY GAME AT RIDGEwOoD
Judging from the games played since the change
in the captancy Of the NewYork club was made, tho
nine has been benefited I'm every respect by the new
plan whether the change for the better will be perma.
nent or not something which man predict with
auy degree OF accuracy. Whether the change OF cap
taincy luck more discipline selfrcspect among the
players IL the of the improvement no one can
determine Certain 1t is that the nine has been playing
in better fora and that is the point that specially In
terests the local baseball public. The followers OF the
nine are particularly interested in the management
of the club, its captain In its personal makeup
Those who support the team handsomely do simply
for OF the game and to interesting baseball
battles Individually club could hardly be improved
yet record collectively shows Immense room for I'M
provement Conscious that the nine could hardly be I'M
proved in a single position, It Is unpleasant for the
friends Of the club to the record 1t has made this
season The club Is In splendid condition at present and
Il should win large majority Of its remaining games
1t is distance behind the leaders in the pennant
race but the players will exert themselves the os
ground soon be recovered.
The Chicago club by Lones steady playing fought Its
way from sixth to second place In extremely short
time. Tho local club has much more time In which TO
improve its present position Owing to the injury to
WEIGH and the poor Of the young pitchers tho
club suffered considerably. WEIGH Is all right again
and with the addition Of Morris the lefthanded pitcher
and Keee the club ought to have more trouble In the
pitching department The nine will play only two more
games home grounds before 1t starts another tour
in the West 1t will also play at Boston and philadelphia
before It will be at the Polo Grounds again Should
the club make good record the trip and improve It's
present position 1t will get hearty reception on It's To
turn TO NewYork
There ia sorrow In the camp OF the followers OF tho
Wolverines The Detroit nine continues to hold the lead
but by small margin that critics predict that the
in q ia day
planes poor pitching for It's recent defeats but poor base
running and Indifferent playing generally are more to
blame The Detroit men returned to home grounds on
saurday and celebrated the occasion by allowing the
Chicago players to defeat them with comparative ease
To date the Detros have fortyone victories out OF
sxty-ve games played. The Chicago club Ia close be-
hind with thirynino victories and only twenty-five de-
feats The Boston club next with the same num-
Der OF victories Chicago but with one more defeat
The Ncw-Yorkers occupy fourth place and have won
thirty-e games but have lost thirty-one.
